uld easily handle this bully changed.“Morning Brother…” Li Bingyan looked at Hong Chen, also with a shocked expression."Morning your mother! You've messed with Young Master Li, you all just wait to di..."I suggest you say whatever you have to say. Don't try my patience any further, or you might not live to see my next warning." Fang Yu said coldly.

Only then did he grab Zong Yao's head.

Zong Yao gasped for breath, his whole body trembling.

Where is the confident and determined look he had before

"I said... I said... Stop it! Yuan, Yuan Shusheng is just a nominal dean, in reality... It's Zhang Baihe who controls Wanli Academy. Yuan Shusheng is just a puppet!" Zong Yao said through a mouthful of blood, his words slurred.

Is Yuantushu being sidelined

If that's the case, then it makes sense.

Because before, both Liang Qiu of Furongmen and Mo's father and son from Shuijingcheng believed that Yuan Shusheng wasn't the type to plan something like this.

If they were all deceived, then Liang Qiu and the Mo family father and son were far too foolish and hasty, or Yuan Shensheng's acting skills were simply too superb to fool so many top-level decision-makers.

The position of the dean being sidelined... sounds more credible.

"How dare you You actually tried to lay your hands on the little princess of the Xian Wang family" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and asked.

"I, we can't do it. The little princess coming to Wu Prefecture...is the biggest opportunity we've had in recent years... If we don't seize this opportunity, our two families will want to reach the top, who knows when that will be... To quickly suppress the three major forces of Wu Prefecture, only with the power behind the little princess can it be done..." Zong Yao said in a broken voice.

"So you guys used some means to disguise yourselves as the Goddess Liangqiu and the father and son of the Mo family to cooperate with Bi Wan, wanting to achieve three goals at once and drag down the three major forces in Wuzhou" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, yes...Bi Wan is not very bright. Our plan was going smoothly until, until..." Zong Yao couldn't go on.

Everything went smoothly until Fang Yu appeared.

By now, the plan has completely fallen apart.

Fang Yu's existence was not originally in the plan.

He could have appeared out of nowhere, formed a bond with the little fish, and only then would he enter Zong Yao's field of vision after gaining its trust.

But he still did not take Fang Yu seriously, which led to a grave mistake!

And hearing this, Fang Yu had a complete grasp of the overall situation regarding the assassination attempt on Xiao Liyu.

Simply put, the Five Absolutes Sect where Zong Yao belongs has colluded with the Wanli Academy in Wu State. They want to pull off a big scheme while Xiao Liyu is traveling through Wu State.

Thus, they hatched a plan to assassinate them, intending to drag the Bi family, Furong Gate, and Shuijing City down with them all at once.

And as for Wanli Academy, its current dean, Yuan Shusheng, happens to be someone with a very distinct personality who doesn't concern himself with worldly affairs. This conveniently allows Wanli Academy to distance itself from the situation.

If there hadn't been the unexpected incident with Fang Yu, their plan would have had a high chance of success.

"Well, I finally figured out what happened." Fang Yu stood up and stretched.

In fact, this event was a struggle between the forces of Wuzhou and other states.

Regardless of whether Zong Yao's words concealed anything, he was the mastermind behind it all.

For this outsider, it doesn't matter who wins or loses among these factions.

The little fish, because of his identity, became a pawn used by others. His investigation was just to complete the task for him, and it was enough to expose the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Next, I'll use these survey results to exchange the monk's clues with Xiaoliyu. As for how to handle the aftermath, it's up to Xiaoliyu to decide." Fang Yu thought to himself.

At this moment, Zong Yao, powerless and lying on the ground, was still trembling with blood flowing non-stop.

He said nothing, his eyes holding a mixture of despair and a glimmer of hope.

He knew his words were flawless.

Although the plan fell through, at least it didn't reveal the true core intention and background.

For him, this was a stroke of luck in misfortune.

……

Water Mirror City, within the city lord's mansion.

Liang Qiu, along with the twenty black-robed cultivators, did not return to Furong Sect but instead went directly to Shui Jing City.

"Dào Yǔ and her sister were kidnapped!"

After hearing this news, Mo Tianlu and Mo Xian's faces turned extremely ugly.

They knew full well what it meant to have Dao Yu under control.

It means... they threw away all their right to speak!

Wan Dao Yu was forced to convey some words that were unfavorable to their Shui Jing Cheng and Fu Rong Men to Xiao Li Yu. That's it!

"Inconsiderate! Inconsiderate! We should never have let them leave Shui Jing City! At least they would be safe within the city walls!" Mo Tianlu's face was ashen, his voice low and heavy.

Mo Xian then stared at Liang Qiu, his eyes strange, and said: "With the Goddess right here, why couldn't she stop this from happening"

Beneath the veil of autumn's coolness, her beautiful brows furrowed slightly as she replied, "When those black-clad cultivators appeared, they indiscriminately slaughtered the many cultivators on the Huijing Terrace. My attention was drawn away, and in just two or three seconds, they were taken. I didn't have time to stop them."

"The goddess's strength should be at the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm, right Why would she be distracted dealing with a group of assassins This doesn't seem to match your capabilities," Mo Xian said, frowning with a hint of meaning in his words.

As soon as these words were uttered, Liang Qiu's eyes turned cold in an instant, and she said in a frosty voice, "Are you questioning me"

"I just find it strange, Dao Yu and his sister both left with you, and they coincidentally ended up at Tianhe Mountain Villa. Coincidentally, there was also a group of black-clad cultivators ambushing there... You..." Mo Xian said directly without fear.

"Alright!" Mo Tianlu said solemnly, "Mo Xian, stop blaming me for believing that Goddess Liangqiu wouldn't do such a thing. If she really did, there would be no need to return here. Now... our Shui Jing City and the Furong Gate are in the same boat. We should all focus on finding back Dao Yu siblings, or... contact the little princess."

Mo Xian took a deep breath. He also knew his deductions were unfounded, so he calmed down and said, "To contact the little princess... I'm afraid only the Bi family could do it. After all, before this, only the Bi family had connected with the powerful family behind the little princess."

At this point, Mo Xian's eyes suddenly changed, and he continued, "The Bi family... the Bi family hasn't appeared since they left. Could it be that they..."

"Don't jump to conclusions. Let's go to Bi's family together and talk to the head of the house before making any plans." Mo Tianlu said.

After that, the Mo family and Liang Qiu left Shui Jing City together to head towards Bi Family.

……

They didn't know that at this very moment, the Dao Yu they cared about most was inside the famous Wufeng Tower between their four major forces.

Inside the high tower's waist, Fang Yu grabbed Zong Yao, who looked like a dead dog, and swaggered out of the secret room.

Those assassins were no different from puppets.

Even if they saw something was wrong, they wouldn't react without Zong Yao's orders.

Fang Yu left a mark inside Zong Yao's body.

Then, he came to the secret room where Han MiaoYi was.redict, but what the Demon Race will do... it's completely impossible to estimate." Hong Yaozu licked his lips and replied, "Of course, my younger brother isn't saying this because he's afraid.""But.....
